On a Sunday afternoon in the Westside, Russ Dyrli was planning to walk to the Santa Monica Pier to watch the sunset through the pylons, but the sight of a blooming century plant over the Pacific Coast Highway stopped him in his tracks.

He waited there for 20 minutes for the sun to drop to the top of his frame before making his image with a Canon 7D Mark II.

Liz Fisher captured this image at LAX, after rushing off a plane to beat the crowds. As she sped toward the staircase, she spotted a "Welcome to Los Angeles" sign, something she had never noticed before. She snapped a photo with her iPhone 6s.

It was the perfect way to mark her three-year anniversary of living in Los Angeles.

While photographing a young girl at a cafe in Venice, Rinzi Ruiz was left with a simple, yet powerful message: Stay curious. Ruiz was enjoying an afternoon with his friends on the boardwalk when he noticed the girl pressed against the window at the Sidewalk Cafe.
